Ischemic Episodes: An Imbalance in the Myocardial Oxygen. - An unusual form of angina is seen in patients with autonomic dysfunction and faulty control of the circulation in the upright posture (Hines et al. - This chapter describes the pharmacological agents used in the treatment of angina. - In the pure form (without an inert carrier such as lactose), nitroglycerin is explosive. - In addition, an improvement in the lusitropic state of the heart may be seen, with more rapid early diastolic filling (Breisblatt et al. - In the past, nitroglycerin was considered to be contraindicated for use in patients with acute. - In the ISIS-4 study there was no effect of the nitrate on postinfarction angina. - Most -adrenergic receptor antagonists appear to be equally effective in the treatment of exertional angina (Thadani et al. - Numerous -adrenergic receptor antagonists are approved for clinical use in the United States. - Because of this, coronary vasodilators (nitrates and/or Ca 2+ channel blockers) are an important part of the therapeutic program in the majority of patients with ischemic heart disease.. - Several problems in the treatment of myocardial ischemia lend themselves to the use of gene-based therapies. - Elevated arterial pressure causes pathological changes in the vasculature and hypertrophy of the left ventricle. - Pharmacological alteration of Na + balance became practical in the 1950s with the development of the orally active thiazide diuretics (see Chapter 29: Diuretics). - Because of the. - example, chlorthalidone, one of the nonbenzothiadiazines in the thiazide class of diuretics, is widely used in the treatment of hypertension. - When used in the treatment of hypertension, thiazide-class diuretics usually should be administered. - In the interim, decisions will be made based on interpretations of the available data. - use of the whole root for the treatment of hypertension and psychoses was described in the Indian literature in 1931 (Sen and Bose, 1931). - it is certain that many of the side effects of reserpine are related to its effects in the CNS.. - resulting fall in the levels of angiotensin II. - Adrenergic receptor antagonists enhance the efficacy of the 1 blockers. - Carvedilol undergoes oxidative metabolism and glucuronidation in the liver. - Hydralazine ( APRESOLINE ) was one of the first orally active antihypertensive drugs to be marketed in the United States. - hydralazine lowers blood pressure equally in the supine and upright positions. - Hydralazine is N-acetylated in the bowel and/or the liver. - about half of the people in the United States acetylate rapidly and half do so slowly.. -

this causes relaxation of the vascular smooth muscle (Standen et al. - There are several cautions in the use of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors in patients with hypertension. - Therefore, the pharmacology of these agents is discussed here only in the context of the treatment of heart failure. - A primary goal in the treatment of heart failure is the alleviation of symptoms, which, in turn, are a direct result of the underlying hemodynamic disorder. - In the. - Even in the absence of recurrent damage to the heart, the severity of the underlying myocardial dysfunction often is progressive. -
